Port Arthur, TAS · 105 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Few places are as ruggedly beautiful and steeped in history as the Tasman Peninsula, and NRMA Port Arthur Holiday Park is at its heart. Located in the very spot where convicts once tended to vegetable gardens, the park’s waterfront, bushland location is special in more ways than one. There’s plenty to entertain the kids right here in the park, but our unique surroundings conceal treasures you’ll delight in finding. Hear the whispers of yesterday at World Heritage-listed colonial sites. Hike through coastal wilderness to the tallest sea cliffs in the country, pounded by the Southern Ocean far below. View those same sea stacks from a speed boat, salt spray glistening on your awe-struck face. Our welcoming hosts are on-site to help make your Tasman Peninsula trip unforgettable.

Sandford, TAS · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
A campsite all to yourself! Camp Sandford is located on our 2-acre bushland property, nestled in the heart of the South Arm Peninsula. Family- and pet-friendly (well-behaved pets only), children can enjoy the cubby house, and the attached mud kitchen can even double as a spot to wash dishes — sounds like a job for the young ones! With several surf beaches within a 5–10 minute drive, beautiful Mortimer Bay just a short, flat walk away, and private access to the Tangara Trail — offering 250 km of recreational trails through bushland and coastal reserves — you won’t be short of adventures. The local wildlife may come by to say hello. We regularly see wallabies, robins, and bandicoots, with occasional visits from echidnas, peregrine falcons, collared sparrowhawks, blue-tongue lizards, and even a snake or two (something to keep in mind during the warmer months). There is easy access for caravans and trailers, and tents are very welcome. Guests must bring their own toileting system or choose to rent the camp toilet tent when booking. At this stage, we can offer 10-amp power, but all water must be BYO. Caravans may require levellers due to a very mild slope on the site, though they are not essential. A fire pit is available during non-fire-ban periods. There is enough space for two caravans if you'd like to book with friends. Strictly no parties or amplified music. This is also our family home, though the campsite is screened from our house by trees and shrubbery, so noise should be kept to a minimum after 9 pm. Driving times: • Lauderdale (closest shops and cafés): 10 mins • Clifton Beach (surfing): 10 mins • Hobart Airport: 20 mins • Coal River Valley wine region: 25 mins • Hobart CBD: 30 mins (outside peak traffic hours)

Note there are no toilet facilities here - you will need to take everything you bring with you! Note there is a toilet dump point at Alonnah, a short drive south of The Neck.

The beach is also home to the island's Fairy Penguins who return to their burrows in the sand dunes at dusk. The best viewing period is during the warmer months of September to February.

Alonnah is also home to the local Police Station, Pharmacy, Cricket Club, two great coffee shop options, and a skate bowl for the concrete shredders. NOTE: your GPS is likely to send you several hundred metres south of the actual property entrance. Look for the small red Australian flag on the side of the road, indicating the location of the entrance. If you arrive at an old weatherboard cottage - you are at the right property, but the incorrect entrance to the campground.

South Bruny, and the Light house When you book our site, you have it all to yourself! Except for sharing it with the wildlife, of course. As the name suggests, there is a family of quolls living on the land and you are very likely to see them! Once dusk arrives and the stars start lighting up the sky, the quolls usually come out to say hi before they start their night activities. Joining the quolls, are the potoroos who are not afraid to come up close and sniff your feet in curiosity. If you are yet to see a quoll and a potoroo in the wild, this is your campsite!
